A smart-phone is thrown upwards from the top of a 448-foot building with an initial velocity of 48 feet per second. The height h of the smart-phone after t seconds is given by the quadratic equation h = − 16 t 2 + 48 t + 448 h=-16t2+48t+448. When will the smart-phone hit the ground?

The smart-phone hit the ground when t = 7 s

Step-by-step explanation:

The height "h" is defined as:

h=16t^2 + 48t + 448

And, when the smart-phone hits the ground, h = 0 ft . Then,

16t^2 + 48t + 448 = 0

And this is a quadratic equation, and we can solve it using the formula for ax^2 + bx + c = 0, which is

x=

So,

t =

t =

And, we have two responses,

t_1 =    and    t_2 =

t_1 = - 4 s              and    t_2 = 7 s

As we know, the time is a quantity that cannot have a negative value, so, we take the result 2.

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
